*Update: Due to some undesirable changes Blogger has made to their format, you will have to click "Older Posts" at the bottom of this page to see the rest of my post. Sorry, but at this point I don't think there is anything I can do about it.

Hello Everyone,

In the past when I didn't know what to write as an introduction, I wrote a poem. However. I am not feeling extremely poetical at the moment. I very much like writing introductions. Usually. But that is because I usually have something that I want very badly to say that doesn't fit into the post's body. So, in lieu of an introduction, I will share one of my favorite quotes/mottoes with you:

"Blessed is the man who, having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy evidence of the fact." - George Eliot

Shad, they still have it, but it is basically useless due to the new auto pagination that is being enforced. As you can see, this is a pain for photo bloggers because it breaks their posts (which are made up of lots of little posts) in two. It also affects the archives. I would recommend that you go to this link to read more about it, maybe even let Blogger know that it is a hardship for you too (if it is :).

About My Blog:

Great American artist Norman Rockwell once said, “I paint what everybody sees but nobody notices.” On this blog, my ambition is to capture, with photographs, what he did in his paintings: everyday life, its foibles, and its funny situations. Norman Rockwell illustrated the cover of the Saturday Evening Post (an actual magazine) for many years. Since I usually post every other Saturday, I thought the name very applicable. (See this post for more detail.)
